I get a little sick to my stomach every time I watch this video...
This is exactly the type of scenario where you need a super high power, and very eye catching taillight that can grip a driver's attention from a long distance.

I got a tip from one of my early customers (thanks Vickie!) about this brand new (and very sobering) report from the League of American Bicyclists. This is the culmination from their "Every Bicyclist Counts" initiative.

OK, so my lucky streak finally ran out yesterday. I guess it was bound to happen. A package of 2 taillights was shipped to California and "successfully" delivered. Of course, "successful" in this case means partially shoved into a mail slot that was too small to hold the package, which was left sticking out for all the world to see.. and take, in this case.
